Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Munchak said the team will decide whether to activate WR Kevin Walter (back) from the Physically Unable to Perform list in a few days. Walter is not expected to play for the team this season.

Tennessee Titans WR Kevin Walter (back) said he recently suffered a setback that involved two weeks of back spasms but is now taking part in his normal rehab. He said he is working on strengthening his left leg because he has had nerve issues in the leg.

Tennessee Titans WR Kevin Walter (back) is eligible to be activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list next week, but head coach Mike Munchak said there is no timetable for his return because he is still rehabbing from his back surgery. Walter said he suffered a setback last week but is fine now. Munchak said Walter said he able to do some running and other light activities at this time.

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Munchak said WR Kevin Walter (back) likely will start the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list. Walter underwent back surgery late last month, but he said he is seeing gradual progress in his recovery.

Tennessee Titans WR Kevin Walter (back) is expected to start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list heading into training camp. He had a scope on his back after missing organized team activities (OTAs) in June. Indications are Walter could still take part in preseason games later in August after a complete recovery.

Tennessee Titans WR Kevin Walter (back) missed all of minicamp with back soreness, but head coach Mike Munchak isn't too concerned about the veteran's readiness for training camp. "Just because we do so many things similar (to what Walter did with the Houston Texas), he understands so many things we're trying to accomplish as a team, a play-action team, a run the ball team. He'll be OK," Munchak said. "We already know what he can do, so he is probably one guy who can miss time. But he has already made an influence on our receivers by the way he handles things. He's a nice fit."

Fantasy Tip: Walter will be jockeying with Justin Hunter, Nate Washington and others for targets behind Kenny Britt, who is still expected to be the No. 1. If Walter can end up in a starting role, he has a chance to be a very solid No. 3 or 4 fantasy receiver or flex player in leagues of 12 or more teams. Nab him in the middle rounds on draft day.

The Houston Texans must look to add a No. 2 receiving option in the offseason who can help take pressure off of WR Andre Johnson. There was a 71-catch difference between the number of balls Johnson caught (112) and the second-best wide receiver caught (WR Kevin Walter, 41) this past season.

Houston Texans WR DeVier Posey had three catches for 46 yards in Week 16 after entering the game with only one catch for 19 yards on the season. Posey saw more playing time over No. 2 receiver WR Kevin Walter, who had two grabs for 11 yards. "We like what we see from Posey in practice, and we're playing him more," head coach Gary Kubiak said.

Fantasy Tip: It was Walter's second score of the season, and his highest yardage total since Week 14 of last season. He remains a decent low-end WR3 or 'flex' play in most fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams.
